Five Key Plays: Michigan 88, Eastern Michigan 83

Michigan received a tougher test than anticipated on Friday night against Eastern Michigan before prevailing with an 88-83 win. The Wolverines and Eagles went back and forth in a high-scoring affair that featured headlining performances from Emoni Bates and Hunter Dickinson.

The performance left plenty to work on for Michigan, but Juwan Howard’s team will be happy to make those adjustments after a win rather than an upset loss. Here are Five Key Plays from the victory featuring Emoni Bates, Hunter Dickinson, Jaelin Llewellyn and more.
